Easily the funniest and most charming film that has been or will be released in 1999 ... period.

Maclean's Magazine

One of the best of the crop of new movies, The Dinner Game, is a telling assault on the ironic sensibility.

Despite the stagey set-up (it was originally conceived as a play and it shows), the film manages to maintain its humor and energy until the final scene in which Veber suddenly casts aside his delightful meanspiritedness and gets soft-hearted and preachy.

On its own terms, it's an idiot's delight.

Time Out

The leads fill out their archetypes comfortably, the timing's well pitched, and the narrative moves busily enough. Cinematically, though, there's little of interest.
